B.; Rensing, S. A.; The Chara Genome: Secondary Complexity and Implications for Plant Terrestrialization Cell 174, 448-464.e24, (2018) DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2018.06.033

Land plants evolved from charophytic algae, among which Charophyceae possess the most complex body plans. We present the genome of Chara braunii; comparison of the genome to those of land plants identified evolutionary novelties for plant terrestrialization and land plant heritage genes. C. braunii employs unique xylan synthases for cell wall biosynthesis, a phragmoplast (cell separation) mechanism similar to that of land plants, and many phytohormones. C. braunii plastids are controlled via land-plant-like retrograde signaling, and transcriptional regulation is more elaborate than in other algae. The morphological complexity of this organism may result from expanded gene families, with three cases of particular note: genes effecting tolerance to reactive oxygen species (ROS), LysM receptor-like kinases, and transcription factors (TFs). Transcriptomic analysis of sexual reproductive structures reveals intricate control by TFs, activity of the ROS gene network, and the ancestral use of plant-like storage and stress protection proteins in the zygote.

We used two approaches for studying the relationships between wine consumption, wine composition and cancer In the first approach, a transgenic mouse model of human neurofibromatosis, combined with the use of well-defined, chemically purified diets, showed that red wine contains nonalcoholic components that can delay tumor onset. In additional studies, catechin, the main monomeric polyphenol of red wine, delayed tumor onset in this mouse model in a positive, linear relationship when incorporated into the diet at levels of 0.5-4 mmol/kg diet. In the second approach, low doses of the chemical carcinogen 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo(4, 5-b)pyridine (PhlP) were administered to rats, and formation of DNA adducts was evaluated by accelerator mass spectrometry. Consumption of red wine solids (the residue from red wine remaining after removal of alcohol and water) and the wine polyphenol quercetin did not influence PhlP-DNA adduct levels or induce liver enzymes (glutathione-S-transferase and quinone reductase). However, quercetin did alter distribution of PhlP in the rat tissues compared to control animals and animals fed other potential dietary chemopreventive agents, including phenylethyl isothiocyanate and sulforaphane. These studies demonstrate the feasibility of these approaches for studying the chemopreventive potential of dietary components at physiologic levels in
